You step out before first light and the desert closes around you like a slow, warm breath. Headlamps bob as the vehicle eases off the gravel and the world narrows to the two-tone strip of road and the silhouette of a dune that looks impossibly high until you are beside it. This is Sossusvlei at dawn — red sand catching the sun and turning the dunes into ridged skin. Over the next five days the landscape will push and pull: a plateaued escarpment plunging 2,000 meters at Spreetshoogte, the chalky moonscape of Deadvlei, and then, abruptly, the Atlantic fog and salt flats around Swakopmund and Walvis Bay.
